Pedestal’s Complement
Pedestal's Complement is a recording of a concert from the Ambient Festival in Gorlice, which took place in July 2019. "All our performances are pure improvisation from scratch. I use the piano and the guitar, on which I play the e-bow bow. A lot of the sounds come from inside the piano, which is prepared. Jurek supports the Eurorack and Buchla modular system" - Andrzej Karałow.
Extended for Strings and Piano
A live album at Kunstraum Walcheturm from Swiss double bassist Daniel Studer's quintet of strings and piano, with Harald Kimmig on violin, Frantz Loriot on viola, Alfred Zimmerlin on violoncello, and Philip Zoubek on piano, performing an inventive set of Studer compositions extending string improvisation to extremes through unorthodox structures and techniques.
Minna Miteru
**2CD version** In collaboration with Markus Acher’s Alien Transistor label, Morr Music presents a collection of hard-to-find Japanese independent music, compiled by Saya, who plays with Ueno Takashi in the iconic duo Tenniscoats. They are part of a current music scene, which is little known outside of Japan. "Minna Miteru"“ focuses on that very scene: the featured bands and musicians share a certain idea of DIY, and are also connected through frequent collaborations and mutual appreciation.
Vanishing Points
All sounds are created with guitar, with the use of echo, delay, and assorted treatments giving these pieces a trance-inducing quality, with repeating rhythm figures and gradual phase shifts creating a warped sense of time.

Molochville
Br'laaB is the moniker for the studio works of Brecht Ameel (Razen), consisting on the one hand of themes from Ameel's songbook for the Acid Boogie Quartet, on the other hand of tape collage pieces based on recordings of found audio, ultra-fi sampling, degraded vhs, skipping cd's and sandpaper vinyls.
